Main ingredient: glutinous rice auxiliary material: koji material: 1. Two kilos of glutinous rice. Seven grams of Quqi (please ask the dosage when buying).
Practice: 1. Soak glutinous rice in clear water until it is crushed with your fingers and turned into powder. 2. Take out the glutinous rice and drain the water; The koji is ground into powder. 3. Add water to the steamer to boil, put gauze on the steamer, and then pour in glutinous rice to smooth it.
4. Cover and steam for about 40 minutes. In the meantime, two things should be done. One is to grind koji into powder; The second is to take a quilt and put it in a carton to make a "nest" for the mash. If it is brewed in winter, add an extra quilt, or use an extra thick quilt. 6. Try to see if the glutinous rice is steamed.
7. After the glutinous rice is steamed, pour it on the chopping board and pull them away with chopsticks while it is hot. 8. When it is not hot, knead the glutinous rice by hand and pour a little warm water while kneading. Water has two purposes. First, because glutinous rice is sticky, watering it with water can get rid of it. The second is to pour a little water and make more mash.
9. When the glutinous rice is kneaded and a little warm, sprinkle the sake koji (leave a little sake koji for later use) and mix well. If you like sour mash, put sake koji while glutinous rice is hot. 10. Put the mixed glutinous rice into a basin (pottery utensils are the best, followed by enamel utensils, if there is really no, you have to use a stainless steel basin.
I didn't have anything, so I used a casserole, dug a nest in the middle (this is the legendary dimple, haha), and then sprinkled the rest of the distiller's yeast. 1 1. Cover the quilt and put it on the bed. 12. Cover the quilt tightly, cover the paper box, and leave it for about two to five days according to the temperature at that time. Open the lid and have a look. If there is half a dimple in the dimple, take it out immediately, open the lid and let it cool, then cover it and store it for about a week.
